Welcome to Gaia! ::

America is a country with deep christian roots yes, however America is not to be taken for christianity, what I mean to say is that America is a land of diversity it should not be held to the doctrine of one religion although if it did Adhere to the Bible it would problably be better off, and I mean truly adhere to the Bible none of this legalism bull worth.

Now unto the second part of the what I am about to say, where did you get that interpretation for revelations ?

to be honest I think American christians are very arrogant, and problably deserve persecution, because well soem of them are just down right crazy and not real christians, by this I mean it seems they rather preach their beliefs to people instead of just tell people because they know there's a hell and their concerned about people's well fare after this life, and then some christians seem hostile to any and everything that doesn't fit with their doctrine like other religions I.E. Wicca or buddahism. However the persecution of christians outside of the united states...well thats another story, I should also note that Americans in general tend to be arrogant, or just some americans.

nope not so much arrogant as whiny. "oooh noooo we can't blatantly brodcast our faith to those who don't want to hear it." in other countries it's "oh s**t we're all about to be executed becasue there was a spy in our church. "

how would christians feel if the local satanist family handed out the 9 satanic principles on cassette to thier kids on hallowe'en or christmas? oh and we can be good without God. besides it's against the constitution for a public school to allow any religion within it's walls isn't it?

yes with all that "New Age" stuff people are believing the wrong thing about God, or not believing in Him

I love how once again everyone stereotypes the American Chrisitian. The truth is that no we cannot be good without some type of God. You know why, because we won't teach morals in school. Ever since prayer was taken out of school, crim rates have gone up, school shooting rates are up, suicides are up, drug use is up, and alcohol related car crashes are up.
Also, I do not appreciate how you make fun of people who are about to be executed. If they didn't want to hear it they wouldn't be at the church you idiot. Those people died for something they believed in, which I am going to guess is more than you would do, since that would make you "whiny". Personally I wouldn't mind if someone handed out a satan principles thing just because I disagree with them. So what if christians try to spread the word of our faith, at least most of us don't kill people over not being in our faith. Alot, not all, but alot of muslims believe people should die who are not a part of their faith. Not all of them act on it, but alot of them believe it. (Once again not all of them). So I can't really see how we are the intolerant ones here.

Now to the original post. Yes america has fallen from the cross, it has become a place where people exploit and use politics to get money. Most politicians are evil and lie, cheat, steal, and kill just to gain a buck. Soon we will becom nothing more than a wasted country that accepts everything, where there is no truth, no justice, no hope, and no freedom.

Well yes, I see your point, but is it possible for society to be good without a god if they aren't even teaching morals in school?

I wouldn't consider it preferable. Again, you are stereotyping Christians. You have to stop doing that!!! True, some Christians start out because they don't want to go to Hell. But as you get deeper in you start to experience the deeper truth of it; the endless love of God, the great feeling of worship, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
